Absolutely beautiful! We loved the nautical theme and the amount of light coming with so many large patio doors. Peaceful surroundings and felt like home with all that was provided. The owners thought of every detail. We were impressed with lovely welcome basket and personal note inside.The beds were very comfortable for sleepong and we have nothing but good things to say about our stay. Thank you! We hope to visit again.

The property was fabulous. Quiet, but there are neighbours so you don’t feel isolated. The home was spotless and had everything we needed (and more!) the hosts were easy to communicate with and answered us promptly. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Amazing place, best equipped rental we have ever stayed in...they had everything we needed and then some! Also the layout was great, lots of outdoor space and the master bedroom was at one end and the other two bedrooms at the opposite end. The stars and sunsets were amazing. Would definitely come back!

This cottage is just about perfect! We are two couples who travel together frequently and this property is the best equipped cottage we've stayed in to date. It is virtually brand new, has everything we could need in the kitchen and more, lots of seating for meals, lots of seating for lounging in front of the tv and for lounging outside on the beautiful deck. The owner also provided folding chairs and towels to take to the beach and kayaks. The property is spotlessly clean and a wonderful welcome basket of goodies was left for us to enjoy. There was a problem with the well water but the owners left lots of bottled water for drinking, so we weren't bothered by this at all. We would rate this property a definite 5 out of 5 stars.

This bungalow will be one of our all-time favorites! It is a lovely, welcoming space and was exceptionally clean and well-designed. We especially enjoyed watching the seals feeding in the mornings and evenings. Thank you for the treats and for stocking everything we could ever need to make our stay so enjoyable!

Relax and Unwind or Stay and Play!
We used this property as our home base traveling in four different directions. While our days were full away, our evenings were spent on the covered deck reading and in the back yard being sporty (football/volleyball/soccer...balls we had brought with us). There are seals that haul out at high tide a couple lots to the left and in the water, so keep your eyes peeled. Stars are awesome at night as this is a pretty dark area. The property has lots of windows and natural light. All spaces inside are nice and well taken care of.

North Shore Golf
Home is beautiful and well appointed. Though the water quality was explained to us prior to our stay, it was a bit disconcerting. The only other minor suggestion is that the barbecue needs better cleaning as there was a lot of grease buildup that burnt off.

Relaxing getaway
We were blown away by the hospitality that was provided by Cindy and Troy! They really thought of everything to make sure we were comfortable and made to feel welcome.
The house itself is immaculate, it’s fully equipped with everything you need and has lots of space for five people. We enjoyed the kayaks in the day and the board games and the propane fire table in the evening.
I’d absolutely recommend Cindy and Troy’s ocean oasis to anyone looking for a relaxing place to getaway.
